U.S. foreign assistance has accomplished some remarkable things over the years. The generosity of the U.S. Congress and the expertise of U.S. development professionals, health professionals, and scientists, combined with the hard work, resourcefulness, and generosity of individuals, families, and communities around the world, have led to real and inspiring progress.

InterAction has created a series of fact sheets to call attention to these achievements, with the hope that pausing to appreciate the progress to date will provide inspiration for renewed efforts. America’s investments in long-term international development are paying off. These fact sheets tell us how.

InterAction works to be a leader in the global quest to eliminate extreme poverty and vulnerability, strengthen human rights and citizen participation, safeguard a sustainable planet, promote peace, and ensure dignity for all people.
